This final episode of 2021 has it all. Hosts Chris Blackwood and Robert Mac dive into the issue of voting rights in an effort to understand and solve ongoing voter suppression in the USA. They interview Damon Hewitt, the President and Executive Director of the Lawyers' Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, and discuss why they don't have a shorter name, the origin and current state of American voter suppression and what can be done about it, and why everyone seems to enjoy making fun of lawyers.
If that's not enough, this episode also includes comedy clips from some recent live Grassroots Comedy shows, featuring Jani Tillery, Martin Amini, Haywood Turnipseed Jr, and Grassroots Comedy's own Chris Blackwood. With all of that, along with some additional surprises, this is not an episode you want to miss!
